Winch Bumper

TheFierce · 04-12-2006, 01:16 PM

I just finished building this winch bumper for my Titan. I used all scrap steel from out behind the mill, so it was way inexpensive to make. I figure it weighs about 150lb. w/o winch. I went out and tested the 9000lb warn the other day...worked great. Now I just need to figure out a solution to the resulting suspension sag. It's not bad, only about an inch, but you can really feel all the extra pounds up there. I already have a homemade version of PRG's kit up front...Any suggestions?

I would ask PRG. Maybe he has a coilover or stronger coilover spring suggestion.

Yeah....If I had the cabbage, I would just buy some sweet Fox or DR coil overs but that $$ went into the winch. Has anyone heard anything further about the new rancho coil overs? I was hoping that perhaps I could just find some aftermarket HD springs.....

Looks good! I'd like to see you make a bumper like that for the rear. Your truck would'nt be as fast, but I'd like the way it would look and maybe people would tailgate you.

would NOT tailgate you.

You may not have to wait long...I'm working on plans for a rear bumper now. Just trying to figure out where to mount the Hi-Lift
